A SHORT NOTE on TRAINING IN MODEL MAKER SYSTEMS SOFTWARE

It is our experience that people attending a training session directly after purchasing the software do not always benefit as much from it as when they do the training at a later stage. We recommend a user take the software and try to operate it by himself and if he has any questions contact our support team telephonically to get guidance. Our software is a lot easier to operate than many similar packages and we have many users who never came for training. From many training sessions our experience shows that people attending a training session without having access to use the software afterwards still battles with the software after training.

With all that said we do have scheduled training sessions at a venue close to our offices in CENTURION where we take 14 learners at a time. We can also do training at a user’s premises on request.

The following training is done :

A one day compulsory beginners session in Model Maker. This will highlight the basic concepts of all our software regarding file types used, menu structures, terrain modeling, CAD basics and earthworks volume calculation. To really benefit from this training session we do recommend the trainee used our Model Maker package for at least 2 months prior to the beginners training session..

A two day follow-up session, not less than 2 months after the beginners session, in Model Maker looking at modules 1 to 6 and 11 of the package and anything specific users request. We appreciate it if users bring questions and example data to this session

A one day session in Road Maker, at the same time as Model Maker follow-up session, covering all aspects of road design definitions, volumes calculations and reporting.

A one day session in Pipe Maker, at the same time as the beginners MM session, covering all aspects of sewer, water or stormwater pipe network design.

A one day session in Survey Maker, at the same time as the beginners MM session, covering all aspects in basic survey and cadastral calculations and setting up of S.G diagrams.

Training on site where we will do training specific to the user’s needs for the application of the software he purchased.

Costs :

Scheduled training, in group session with other users, is done at a cost of R1 100.00 per person per day.

On site training is done at R 5800.00 per day plus travelling and accomodation expenses. Maximum 6 people per session. A venue with computer for each attendee must be provided.
